"Come back here!"

"ah!!"

She screamed, roared, and raged, her hands banging on the door until they bled, but no one paid any attention to her.

She was locked up in this small courtyard, eating, drinking, defecating and urinating inside, and could never leave. And her child...

child!

"Shi'er!"

She suddenly thought of something and hurried back into the house, stepping on the rotten rice that was spilled on the floor and throwing herself in front of the simple little bed.

The young Zong Zhengshi had a high fever. His cheeks were red and his temperature was very high. He was vaguely unconscious and had lost consciousness due to the fever:

"Mother...Mother..."

Her breathing was hot and her voice was so weak that it was almost inaudible:

"Father... Is Father here to pick us up..."

The eldest princess burst into tears and held the child's hand eagerly, sobbing:

"Shi'er, don't worry. Your father will take us back to the Prince's Mansion soon. Have a good sleep first. When you wake up, we will go home."

Zong Zhengshi struggled to keep his eyes open, panting:

“Really…?”

"Really, really!" The eldest princess nodded vigorously, tears falling, and she was on the verge of collapse. "Shi'er, be good, just get some sleep! Everything will be fine!"

Clang——

Outside, there was the sound of a door unlocking.

It was very quiet, but the eldest prince's wife heard it with her sharp ears.

Are they back?

Is the doctor here?

I was so happy that I turned around and rushed out of the house. When I ran to the door, I saw an unexpected figure...

Qin Hongluan? !

"Why is it you!" She was surprised.

Qin Hongluan walked slowly into the courtyard and looked around casually.

The yard was very small, with only two rooms. The space for activities was framed tightly, like a small prison cell. The furnishings in the room were very simple, and the rotten rice on the ground had turned sour and smelled strange...

She walked into the house gracefully, smiling slightly:

"Thank you for your letter of divorce."

It was that letter of divorce that helped her escape.

Otherwise, she might be locked up with the eldest prince's wife, under house arrest forever, leading a life worse than death.

The eldest prince's wife looked extremely unhappy.

Is she here to laugh at the joke?

Rushing forward, he twisted Qin Hongluan's hand and said, "Get out! You are not welcome here!"

She would not allow anyone to trample on her inherent pride.

Qin Hongluan smiled and said, "Don't worry, sister. I heard that Princess Shi is ill. I came to repay you. Although I can't save you, I can alleviate Princess Shi's pain."

Her eyes turned to the person on the bed.

Children are the mother's weak point.

The eldest prince's wife is no exception.

She was stunned. "You...you mean...you want to save Shi'er?"

At the beginning, she and Shi'er bullied Qin Hongluan, slapping her, scalding her with boiling water, and all kinds of abuse. How could Qin Hongluan help her without holding a grudge?

"After all, we are sisters. The eldest prince has fallen again, and you...how can I care about the past?" Qin Hongluan said generously, elegantly, and dignifiedly.

The eldest prince's wife didn't believe it at first.

On second thought, she had already fallen into this situation and was of no use to anyone, so there was no need for Qin Hongluan to harm her.

Maybe Qin Hongluan is really merciful?

No matter what, as long as Shier can be cured, she is willing to do anything!

She let down her guard a little, looked around, and saw that she, Zong Zhengshi, and Qin Hongluan were the only ones here. She couldn't help but wonder:

"Where's the doctor?"

Qin Hongluan walked slowly to the bed, looked down at the child who was badly burned, her eyes narrowed slightly, and certain images flashed quickly through her mind.

Insults, beatings, framing, pouring hot tea...

His eyes were cold and emotionless, but there was a smile on the corners of his lips. He slowly turned around and sat down, touching Zong Zhengshi's hot forehead, and said in a deep tone:

"Doctor, it's me."
